If hell is so hot that must mean theirs no ice. Sounds like heaven to me

So I took my first visit to the gym for years and had the induction with the personal trainer. It's been a while since i've been so bemused, "Right this is a treadmill, to start you press the big green button that says start. You have to go at the same speed as the treadmill as you will fall off the back of it. As it goes faster you will have to start running". I was half expecting him at this point to explain how you run and tell me I might have to breath a bit more!
As much as I thought I hated the gym after a few minutes I noticed how much I actually missed it. I enjoyed the rowing machines, the cross trainers, weight machines, all but the treadmill! I managed only 4 miles on it before having enough. The boredom is a killer and I never felt comfortable enough to look up for enough time to concentrate on the TV.
Doesn't seem to be much of a let up with the weather either with snow and minus temperatures predicted until at least the weekend! I just hope that once again they are wrong.
